It tells the story of Rusk being entered into a beauty pageant by her well-meaning, former pageant queen mother. "Wig'd Out" gives viewers the opportunity to dig deeper into the relationship young women have with the concept of beauty, the journey to self-acceptance and the mother-daughter dynamic.<br /> <br /> Rusk used her experiences to motivate other children as a Radio Disney host, an author and through her nonprofit organization, Olivia's Cause. She's appeared on local and national talk shows, including the "Today" Show. "Wig'd Out" had been in the works since 2007.
